Two things that BLACKPINK's LISA does not lack: cash and views. The K-pop superstar's 2021 music video for 'Money' has crossed the billion-view mark on YouTube, marking her first solo visual to reach the milestone.
In the three-minute clip, LISA exudes confidence as she and a group of backup dancers perform intricate choreography in two locations: an abandoned highway and a warehouse illuminated by a giant electronic screen. The first has a flickering sign in the background that reads a quote from P.T. Unattributed Barnum who writes: “Money is a terrible master but an excellent servant.”
“I came here to drop some money, I drop all my money/ Drop some money, all this bread so delicious,” sings the Thai musician on the TEDDY-produced track. “Twerking, twerking when I buy the things I like / Dollar, dollars down my ass tonight.”
Although “Money” is her first entry into the Billion Views Club as a female act, LISA has previously won the honor six times with her BLACKPINK bandmates JISOO, JENNIE and ROSÉ. Their previous entries include “Kill This Love”, “DDU-DU DDU-DU”, “BOOMBAYAH”, “As if It's Your Last” and “How You Like That”.
LISA's latest achievement is made even more impressive when you consider that the star has only released two songs as a solo artist, with “Lalisa” coming alongside “Money” in September 2021. Both entered the Billboard Hot 100 and The latter track became the first solo K-pop hit to surpass the 1 billion stream mark on Spotify in September.
